midnight.
Tianshuiyuan became a mess.
Xu Ruqing disappeared, and so did Jiuyin.
The disciples searched all the major libraries and bookstores in the city, but there was still no trace of the master and servant.
At this moment, news of Xu Ruqing came from Xincheng, and Zhao An immediately rode off and headed straight for Xincheng.
The night was dark and windy all the way, and the clouds were gloomy and gloomy.
For some reason the horses suddenly frightened and stopped somewhere, neighing loudly.
Zhao An was almost thrown off his horse, and he hurriedly tightened the reins before barely holding on.
Looking ahead, the road ahead was bleak, with strong winds blowing across the official road. From behind a nearby dead tree, half of a blue-white face poked out, like a zombie.
Zhao An's hair suddenly stood on end and he hurriedly rubbed his eyes to look carefully, but there was no trace of that face.
"Sister, is that you?"
Zhao An shouted loudly, but no one responded.
"She won't kidnap Xu Ruqing, right?"
Zhao An did not dare to stay any longer and continued to gallop on his horse, finally arriving at the new city after a long time.
The lights in the city were brightly lit, and there were officers and soldiers patrolling under martial law. Zhao Anliang issued a warrant to let things pass unimpeded, and finally met Xu Ruqing at Qianyu's residence.
She was in very bad spirits, and her waxy face was pale, as if she had been frightened.
Qian Yu secretly explained the reason, saying that the disciples of Yunding Palace sent people here. She was attacked on the way to the new city and happened to be rescued by them.
Zhao An asked: "Who did it?"
"I don't know, the other Jiuyin is missing. Let Miss Xu rest well tonight. I think she will be able to tell us the truth after she recovers tomorrow."
Qian Yu patted Zhao An on the shoulder and left first.
Ruqing was trembling while sleeping, speaking incomprehensible words, and cold sweat continued to break out from her forehead.
Zhao An saw the pain in his eyes and felt the pain in his heart, so he gave her some soothing medicine, and she calmed down in the middle of the night.
There was nothing to say all night, but I always felt that there were a pair of eyes outside the window staring at the room.
The next day, the dazzling sunlight dispelled the gloom through the windows.
Xu Ruqing huddled in Zhao An's arms, her pretty face full of nostalgia, and she talked about what happened last night.
"Little girl?" Zhao An's eyes widened.
"Yes, I don't know who she is, and I don't know why she wanted to kidnap Jiuyin. She is so terrifying, just like the shadow in my dream."
Xu Ruqing's head was still dizzy.
Zhao An secretly gritted his teeth, thinking that she was probably the sister of the original owner.
That damn girl didn't talk about martial arts in the movie, and she promised not to kill anyone until they met, so why did she arrest Jiuyin!
With her viciousness, Jiuyin was afraid that she would be in a bad situation.
I just don't know how to contact her.
Zhao An didn't want anything to happen to Jiuyin, and his heart was in ruins.
Next, he arranged for someone to cook medicine for Xu Ruqing, and asked Qianyu to arrange for people and maids to protect him.
Xu Ruqing should not return to the capital during this time.
Qian Yu said seriously: "I have been feeling uneasy in the past few days. I always feel that something is going to happen. Please pay attention to your safety alone in the capital. If you are in danger, please notify me immediately."
Recently, Qian Yu has trained a lot of soldiers, is also stepping up the forging of armor, and has also developed a three-eyed fire gun. It has achieved initial results, and I believe it will be successful soon.
Zhao An nodded and came to the residence alone. This time there was no disciple to stop him and he successfully met Yunzhu.
What is exciting is that Jiuyin is lying on the bed, uninjured, just in a coma,
"Teacher, how did you do that!"
Zhao An was overjoyed and grabbed Yunzhu's arm.
Her face looked pale and her smile was a little forced, "I happened to be traveling last night and saw her, so I brought her back."
"No, wasn't she taken away?"
According to Xu Ruqing's description, the person who took action was definitely the original owner's sister, and Qian Yuwei said she was crazy. How could the teacher get her back?
Just as he was thinking about it, Zhao An's pupils shrank violently, and he saw that Yunzhu's left hand was bandaged with thick gauze, and there was blood overflowing.
"Teacher, your hands!"
Zhao An suddenly grabbed her left arm.
Yunzhu was startled and it was too late to escape.
Zhao An was stunned. A hysterical resentment and anger surged into the sky, almost consuming his reason.
Yunzhu's little finger on her left hand is gone...
"As you can see, I used one finger to replace the nine sounds." Yunzhu smiled bitterly and spoke softly.
Zhao An just stared at the blood-soaked gauze, and after a long time he muttered faintly: "I swear, I will kill her with my own hands."
Yunzhu said in surprise: "Is this the path you chose? You were against her in the past, so she would kill you."
"You think I'm afraid of her? She's a bastard with no hair on her head. She'd better pray she doesn't fall into my hands."
Zhao An hates it.
He is not the original owner. Even if he sympathizes with the champion's experience, he will never allow anyone to harm those close to him, not even his sister in this body!
Thinking of this, Zhao An gently let go of Yunzhu's hand and said in a low voice: "Teacher, I will ask you to take care of Jiuyin. I will go back to the palace first."
Yunzhu nodded and walked all the way to the door.
Zhao An did not go to see Jiuyin, knowing that she would be safe and that it would be safe to stay.
The road back to the city was endless and bleak, with no cars or horses in sight.
Zhao An rode his horse slowly and shouted to Si Ye: "I know you are here! Let me tell you, anyone who dares to hurt me, I will fight you until death!"
The shouts carried far away, but no one responded.
But Zhao An was sure that the little lunatic must have heard it.
Now it can be concluded that she is not Luo Qingshuang because she is a dwarf.
Half an hour later, when he returned to the harem, he saw Chang Ming.
He was dressed in eunuch uniform and had a gentle smile, "Brother Zhao, you are finally back. Do you have time for us to go to the imperial dining room to chat?"
Zhao An also wanted to talk to him, so he suppressed his anger and entered the imperial dining room with him.
A familiar cabin, with a dazzling array of fine wine and delicacies placed on the small table in front of you.
Chang Ming took the initiative to pour a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, the situation in the court is stable now. Soon, the queen will give birth. Then we will join hands to support the crown prince."
"Now you know you invited me to drink. I escorted the Chen family members out of the capital and were attacked. I don't know who was responsible." Zhao An was as cold as ice and did not touch the wine glass.
Chang Ming laughed dryly, "Perhaps there are people in the court who don't like you and want to get rid of you. You also know that after you destroyed the Chen family, you are a well-deserved upstart in the court. It is normal for others to be afraid. But don't worry, as long as necessary, , I will investigate who did it."
"No, by the way, I haven't seen the Queen for a long time. I'm going to pay her a visit later."
"If you have anything to say, you can tell me and I can convey it to you."
Chang Ming's words made Zhao An couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
This guy doesn't even want to be seen by the Queen!
It seemed that the empress was right, Chen Yuru had the idea of eradicating him.
"Come, drink."
Chang Ming greeted him warmly, and this enthusiasm made Zhao Andun alert.
